Currently I have postfix setup with maps so that root on server A has mail sent from root@server-a.fqdnmailto:root@server-a.fqdn and that is relayed to my production box. It just seems like it is an additional service to manage on so many hosts?
I'm not aware of any other method, and as for managing, it's typically set it and forget it. Forward all mail to a central server, no other configuration needed on the local systems.
my postfix config for this purpose is 8 lines, and could probably be cut down even further, haven't tried though
# Postfix Client configuration for production environments queue_directory = /var/spool/postfix command_directory = /usr/sbin daemon_directory = /usr/libexec/postfix mail_owner = postfix inet_interfaces = 127.0.0.1 recipient_delimiter = _ setgid_group = postdrop relayhost = prod-utility-vip.sea2.my.domain
